Advanced thermoplastic fiber placement is our proprietary, patented technology which uses unidirectional prepreg material (continuous fiber reinforcement in thermoplastic resin matrix) with high heat and pressure to consolidate the structure ‘on the fly’ (in-situ) or as it is manufactured. There is no post-processing (autoclave or oven cure) which allows for greatly reduced residual stresses.

This technology allows us to orient the reinforcing fibers from 0 degree (axial) to 90 degrees (hoop) and anywhere in between. The result is a well-consolidated structure with continuous fibers placed in the directions that they are needed for optimum strength and stiffness for a high-quality, high-performance part. Our robotic in-situ process provides the repeatability and accuracy you need for high-quality, serial production.

Many structures in our photo gallery represent our fiber placement technology capabilities in both size and shape. We have also included a video gallery to help demonstrate the benefits of in-situ fiber placement. And lastly, there is a wealth of technical support at 迈博体育 Sealing Solutions, which is evident in the technical papers that are available for your review.
